ReeV0 Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 Hi all, I'm trying to find a downwards-pointing right angle midi cable, have been searching for 30 mins but no luck. It's to be used in my HX Stomp and DMC.3xl, the 5 pins go along the bottom. All the right-angle midi cables I've found would have it top-pointing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewblack Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 Thomann have them but you need to be buying about 97 quids worth of other stuff or a £3 lead goes up to 11 with the postage. Maybe we should form a Thomann syndicate... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Higgie Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 (edited) Quite expensive, but I made my own using Switchcraft MIDI jacks. They can be rotated when you build them so can be any of 8 different angles. I use mine with the HX Stomp also. https://www.designacable.com/angled-5-pin-din-switchcraft-05dl5mx-adjustable-angles.html?gclid=CjwKCAiAqJn9BRB0EiwAJ1SztUi2PJeLvpWKQqY0P-SQJiStHxpRrV2eaVP_vuNA00ThEmvWi7KniBoC7-QQAvD_BwE Edited November 8, 2020 by Higgie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have to solder two together? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Higgie Posted November 8, 2020 Share Posted November 8, 2020 (edited) Yeah that’s just the one jack. You’d need two, and some mic cable, but means you can have the exact cable you need, length and orientation-wise Edited November 8, 2020 by Higgie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quatschmacher Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 (edited) @Al Krow has some Rockboard Flax MIDI cables for sale and these can be angled up or down. Or these: Hosa MID-303RR 3ft Right Angle 5... https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00FC4ZAHM?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share The above one has the two plugs angled oppositely. They do a version where both are the same orientation too I think. And Rockboard also make non-adjustable angled MIDI cables.
